4 COMPLETE RERnTrAL.

We surrender n large portion OF our
space this morning 10 the answer made 10y
the attorneys Of Messrs MADDEN, Lee and
Harris to the biIl filed 10y the Attorney
General, changing diversion during 1887
OF 100000 from other uses, to the use OF
streets, bridges and paving, in excess OF the
taxes levied for those purposes for 1887.
Wcprint the answcrin full, because nothing
could be- Of greater interest to the people
Of Memphis at this time. II shows most
conclusively that President MADDEN and
his associates in the administration OF
municipal ailaiH have had no other
thought than the welfare Of the public.
The charges preferred by the Attorney
General have been met point
by point and line upon line.
The figures are given and they show that
not one cent has been Incorporated,
aud that when expenditures were made in
excess Of tax collections the deficit was
met by the Use OF collected back taxes. II

diversions" as those. ior Fhiel
tho Attorney General seeks to hold
Mr.. MADDEN responsible, occurred during
the administration Of Dr. Porter, his pred
eccssor in Office. Every line Of IN,
answer is interesting, and when read
the conclusion Is inevitable that
Mr.. MADDEN aud his associates
deserve nothing lees than tho mos
uncquiyocal certificate OF good character
II Is revealed that all tho present indebt

proposition was laid before the committee

special committee was appointed to con-
